Welcome to the Antifascist Book Club

At Veterans Fighting Fascism, we believe that knowledge is a powerful tool in the fight against authoritarianism. The Antifascist Book Club is more than just a reading group—it’s a grassroots movement to empower communities, build local leadership, and defend democracy.

What is the Antifascist Book Club?

The Antifascist Book Club is a community-driven initiative that brings people together to read, discuss, and act against the rising threats of authoritarianism and fascism. Through a carefully curated reading list, practical resources, and local organizing tips, we aim to transform knowledge into action.

Our Mission:

• Educate:

  • Provide resources to help people understand the roots and tactics of fascism.

• Organize:

  • Inspire local book clubs to become hubs of antifascist activism.

• Empower:

  • Develop new leaders who are ready to stand up for democracy.

Join us to connect with others, deepen your understanding, and turn ideas into action.
